Make route diagram ring-shaped or double-lined. Singleline is uninformative and counterintuitive because it is hard determine which way the bus is moving

Nicht so gut. Not exactly at time. 그놈의 9007번 빨간버스 정보는 몇번을 새로고침해도 없다더니. No info로 계속뜸. 결국 버스정보 아예 들어가서 버스정보클릭하니까 이미 지나갔다네.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 장난하나.. 개빡침 눈앞에서 지나감ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 이게한두번이아님. 카카오버스는 하지말고 카카오톡만하시길 카카오맵도 별로였음.

카카오버스 좋네요. 시간 가끔 안맞는데.. 많이는 아닌 것 같고… 알람 기능이 승차하차 나누어진게 좋은것 같아요.

It's useless when you have kakao map installed. There's a search for buses but again useless when you don't know the id #. I ended up using kakao map searching for the bus ID. I don't speak/understand Korean but I can read Hangul. If you're not familiar, good luck!

3x2 위젯에서 두 번째 버스 도착시간까지 뜨다보니 안 그래도 작은 위젯 화면에 정보 표시량이 더 줄었어요ㅠㅠ 스크롤바를 무조건 내려봐야 말 정도로...... 앱의 전반적인 인터페이스가 다 그래요 너무 버튼 같은 게 큼직큼직해져서 해상도 낮은 피처폰 쓰는 느낌...?즐겨찾기 화면에서 노선이 20개 떴었으면 이제는 5개만 보이고 그러네요.... ***물론 모두를 만족시킬 수는 없겠죠.. 다만 이러한 것들을 선택 가능하도록 (예: 두 번째 버스 도착 정보 표시 여부, 화면에서 박스?텍스트? 줄간격 조정) 하면 좋을 것 같아요. ***요약하자면, (전반적인 카카오앱 시리즈의 특징이긴 한데) 한 화면에 표시되는 정보가 너무너무 작아요...!!!

It would be good to have an English language option for those who do not speak or read Korean. The rest works fine.

Please put romanization on the Maps. Make useful for tourists and visitors.

I like how I can use English here, but would be more useful if I can plot a course from A to B and the app show me the correct route and bus numbers to take. Bonus feature that would earn 5 stars is notification that you are approaching transfer or destination.

없어진 노선 즐겨찾기 수정하게 해주세요. 변경된 노선 즐겨찾기에서 빼고 바뀐 노선번호로 즐겨찾기 수정하고싶은데 안되네요. 그냥 추가하려니 한 정류장에 6개까지 즐겨찾기 못한다고 막힙니다(642번 -> 652번)

One day this app usurped a previous Seoul Bus app that provided real-time information by location. This app seems to be obsessed with information gathering instead of information giving.

Where is my bookmarks? Why do I have to hand my personal information in to use this app which was not! You dont need my login!! I want to reset the upgrade so that i can use former version.

This app used to be SeoulBus before being taken over by Kakao. The previous version used to be able to automatically scan the nearest bus stop with consistent reliability and list all incoming buses right away. It also had a MUCH more user-friendly interface. As a native English speaker with limited Korean, I was able to navigate the app with relative ease. The CURRENT Kakao update has now lost that reliability and ease of use. In terms of reliability, it scans the nearest bus stop less well, and it doesn't always list all possible bus routes--sometimes not at all. The interface has added annoying additional steps you have to input in order to find incoming bus info. You have to pinpoint your location on a GPS map, which may be confusing if there are multiple bus stops in your vicinity or you're not good with maps. You also have to input the direction you're traveling by inputting a bus stop along the route you want to travel, which is problematic if you don't know your bus route well. The worst is you need to connect your Kakao account to activate its "full" features. It seems like Kakao is more interested in data mining than maintaining a quality app....

I used this app before it was bought out by the corporation. Now it only shows 2 bus advance information instead of 3. On two different occasions it hasn't shown any information about busses. I would have missed my bus if it wasn't for my wife using a different application. Many thumbs down I'm very disappointed.

Everything I had in the old app has been lost. Difficult to find info. If I was just starting in Seoul it might be ok, but I had 3 years worth of favourite bus stops, bus routes etc.

기존의 필요한기능들을 겉만 번지르르한 쓸모없는 기능들이 대체하는 이상한 업데이트네요. 쓰기 불편합니다. 소요시간 계산은 대체 왜 제거한건가요? 도무지 이해가 안되네요. 다른 앱쓰렵니다.
